Max
Blumenthal en Mark Ames hebben op Gray Zone een uitgebreid artikel
geschreven over de gelekte documenten waaruit blijkt dat de Britse
militaire geheime dienst zich bedient van moddergooien en andere
manieren om het publieke debat te beïnvloeden...... Ja, je las het
goed, zaken waarvoor de Britse geheime diensten, de Britse politiek
en de Britse massamedia nu al weer een paar jaar lang met de
vieze vingers naar Rusland wijzen.......
Het 'leukst' van al is wel dat men dit het 'Integrity Initiative' noemt...... ha! ha! ha! ha! ha!
Het
zoveelste bewijs dat de westerse bevolkingen keihard worden
voorgelogen met fake news (nepnieuws) en desinformatie door de hiervoor aangehaalde instanties (met hulp van de reguliere media).... Voorgelogen?
Zeg maar gerust gehersenspoeld! Zo gaat er werkelijk geen dag voorbij
of de BBC demoniseert Rusland (en intussen ook alweer een aantal maanden
lang China)...... Zaken als Russiagate, waar zelfs na twee jaar niet één
bewijs voor kon worden geleverd, worden gepresenteerd als een feit.....
(overigens daaraan maken ook andere reguliere westerse massamedia zich
schuldig, bij ons zelfs de NOS, een 'onafhankelijke
zendgemachtigde', al even 'onafhankelijk' als de BBC.......)
Nogmaals
waar men Rusland van beschuldigt doet men zelf op grote schaal (of zo de waard is....).......
Het gaat dan ook al lang niet meer over de waarheid maar om het
aantal mensen dat men weet te overtuigen van pertinente
leugens........
Beste bezoeker ik moet eerlijk toegeven dat na het lezen van artikelen zoals hieronder is opgenomen, me het gevoel bekruipt dat hier niets tegen te doen is, zeker als je ziet dat men dergelijke schandalige zaken in feite openlijk toegeeft (zo wordt in dit artikel o.a. gesteld dat men in westerse overheden en dan m.n. in de afzonderlijke geheime diensten en rechtse denktanks niets tegen propaganda heeft, zolang het volk maar blijft geloven in alle leugens en manipulaties.....).... Alsof we al in één grote dictatuur leven...... Vergeet hierbij nogmaals niet dat de brengers van echt nieuws en oprechte journalisten die uitgebreide onderzoeken publiceren, onderzoeken die aangeven hoe de vork werkelijk in de smerige westerse steel steekt, worden afgedaan als brengers van nepnieuws en onzin, waarbij deze journalisten en alternatieve opiniemakers worden aangemerkt als Russische trollen......... (elke kritiek op westerse manipulaties en andere smerige spelletjes, wordt neergezet als anti-westers en pro-Russische propaganda, wat uiteraard een smerige leugen is, een leugen die in de eind 40er en begin 50er jaren van de vorige eeuw thuishoort, waar opperschoft McCarthy in de VS tekeerging tegen iedereen die links en/of tegen VS oorlogsvoering was.....)

New Documents Reveal a Covert British Military-Intelligence Smear Machine Meddling In American Politics
The Integrity Initiative has mobilized an international disinformation campaign across Europe. Now, with government and right-wing foundation money, this massive “political smear unit” is infiltrating the US.
By Max Blumenthal and Mark Ames
A
bombshell domestic
spy scandal has
been unfolding in Britain, after hacked internal communications
exposed a covert UK state military-intelligence psychological warfare
operation targeting its own citizens and political figures in allied
NATO countries under the cover of fighting “Russian
disinformation.”
The
leaked documents revealed a secret network of spies, prominent
journalists and think-tanks colluding under the umbrella of a group
called “Integrity Initiative” to shape domestic opinion—and to
smear political opponents of the right-wing Tory government,
including the leader of the opposition Labour Party, Jeremy Corbyn.
Until
now, this Integrity Initiative domestic spy scandal has been ignored
in the American media, perhaps because it has mostly involved British
names. But it is clear that the influence operation has already been
activated in the US. Hacked documents reveal that the Integrity
Initiative is cultivating powerful allies inside the State
Department, top DC think tanks, the FBI and the DHS, where it has
gained access to Katharine
Gorka and
her husband, the fascist-linked cable
news pundit Sebastian
Gorka.
The
Integrity Initiative has spelled out plans to expand its network
across the US, meddling in American politics and recruiting “a new
generation of Russia watchers” behind the false guise of a
non-partisan charity. Moreover, the group has hired one of the most
notorious American “perception management” specialists, John
Rendon, to train its clusters of pundits and cultivate relationships
with the media.
Back
in the UK, Member of Parliament Chris Williamson has clamored for an
investigation into the Integrity Initiative’s abuse of public
money.
In
a recent
editorial,
Williamson drew a direct parallel between the group’s collaboration
with journalists and surreptitious payments the CIA made to reporters
during the Cold War.
“These
tactics resemble those deployed by the CIA in Operation Mockingbird
that was launched at the height of the cold war in the early 1950s.
Its aims included using the mainstream news media as a propaganda
tool,” Williamson wrote.
“They
manipulated the news agenda by recruiting leading journalists to
write stories with the express purpose of influencing public opinion
in a particular way,” the Labour parliamentarian continued. “Now
it seems the British Establishment have dusted off the CIA’s old
playbook and is intent on giving it another outing on this side of
the Atlantic.”
Unmasking a British military-intelligence smear machine
The
existence of the Integrity Initiative was virtually unknown until
this November, when the email servers of a previously obscure British
think tank called the Institute for Statecraft were hacked, prompting
allegations of Russian intrusion. When the group’s internal
documents appeared at a website hosted by Anonymous Europe, the
public learned of a covert propaganda network seed-funded to the tune
of over $2 million dollars by the Tory-controlled UK Foreign Office,
and run largely by military-intelligence officers.
Through
a series of cash inducements, off the record briefings and all-day
conferences, the Integrity Initiative has sought to organize
journalists across the West into an international echo chamber hyping
up the supposed threat of Russian disinformation—and to defame
politicians and journalists critical of this new Cold War campaign.
A bid
for funding submitted by
the Integrity Initiative in 2017 to the British Ministry of Defense
promised to deliver a “tougher stance on Russia” by arranging for
“more information published in the media on the threat of Russian
active measures.”
The
Integrity Initiative has also worked through its fronts in the media
to smear political figures perceived as a threat to its militaristic
agenda. Its targets have included a Spanish Department of Homeland
Security appointee, Pedro Banos, whose nomination was scuttled thanks
a media blitz it secretly orchestrated; Jeremy Corbyn, whom the
outfit and its media
cutouts painted as
a useful idiot of Russia; and a Scottish member of parliament, Neil
Findlay, whom one of its closest media allies accused of
adopting “Kremlin messaging” for daring to protest the official
visit of the far-right Ukrainian politician Andriy Parubiy — the
founder of two neo-Nazi parties and author of a white nationalist
memoir, “View
From The Right.”
These
smear campaigns and many more surreptitiously orchestrated by the
Integrity Initiative offer a disturbing preview of the reactionary
politics it plans to inject into an already toxic American political
environment.
Lessons from “the man who sold the war”
A
newly released Integrity Initiative document reveals that the outfit
plans an aggressive expansion across the US.
The
Integrity Initiative claims to have already established a “simple
office” in Washington DC, though it does not say where. It also
boasts of partnerships with top DC think tanks like the Atlantic
Council, the Center for European Policy Analysis, CNA, and close
relationships with US officials.
A
major hub of Integrity Initiative influence is the State Department’s
Global Engagement Center (GEC), a de
facto US government propaganda operation that
was established by President Barack Obama to battle online ISIS
recruitment, but which was rapidly repurposed to counter Russian
disinformation following the election of Trump.
The
Integrity Initiative has also recruited
one of the most infamous American PR men to
organize its clusters of journalists and political figures.
He
is John Rendon, best known as “The
Man Who Sold The War” —
several wars, in fact, but most notoriously the Iraq invasion. Rendon
was the self-described “information warrior” who planted fake
news in the major US-UK media about non-existent WMD threats. With
deep ties to the CIA and other military-intelligence agencies, his PR
firm was paid $100 million to organize and sell Ahmed Chalabi’s
Iraqi National Congress. In 2002, the New York Times exposed a
Pentagon program using Rendon to plant “disinformation” —
including “false stories” and “the blackest of black PR” —
in media outlets around the world, in order to shape public opinion
and sell the Iraq invasion.

Journalist James
Bamford outlined
a catalogue of disinformation feats Rendon performed for the
Pentagon, such as identifying “the biases of specific journalists
and potentially obtain an understanding of their allegiances,
including the possibility of specific relationships and
sponsorships.” Bamford also found proposals and programs Rendon was
involved in that aimed to “’coerce’ foreign journalists and
plant false information overseas… [and] find ways to ‘punish’
those who convey the ‘wrong message.’”
These
tactics seem particularly relevant to his work with the Integrity
Initiative, especially considering the internal documents that
reveal further Rendon-style plans to produce reports and studies to
be “fed
anonymously into local media.” (Among
the outlets listed as friendly hosts in Integrity Initiative internal
memos are Buzzfeed and El Pais, the center-left Spanish daily.)
Keeping up with the Gorkas
Internal
documents also refer to interactions between Integrity Initiative
Director Chris Donnelly and top Trump officials like Katharine
Gorka,
a vehemently anti-Muslim Department of Homeland Security official, as
well as her husband, Sebastian, who earned right-wing fame during his
brief tenure in Trump’s White House.
The
latter Gorka is an open
supporter of
the Hungarian Vitezi Rend, a proto-fascist order that collaborated
with Nazi Germany during its occupation of Hungary. Following Trump’s
election victory in 2016, Gorka appeared for televised interviews in
a black Vitezi Rend uniform.

Gorka, in Vitezi Rend garb, with his wife, Katharine, on Election
Night
Gorka
was among the first figures listed on an itinerary for Donnelly to
Washington this September
18
to 22. The itinerary indicates that the two had breakfast before
Donnelly delivered a presentation on “Mapping Russian Influence
Activities” at the federally funded military research center, CNA.
According
to the itinerary, Donnelly was granted access to Pentagon officials
like Mara
Karlin,
an up-and-coming
neoconservative cadre,
and John McCain Institute executive director Kurt
Volker,
another neoconservative operative who also serves as the US Special
Representative for Ukraine. Numerous meetings with staffers inside
the State Department’s Office of Global Engagement were also
detailed.
A foreign agent in the State Department?
Of
all the State Department officials named in Integrity Initiative
documents, the one who appeared most frequently was Todd Leventhal.
Leventhal has been a staffer at the State Department’s Global
Engagement Center, boasting of “20 years of countering
disinformation, misinformation, conspiracy theories, and urban
legends.” In an April 2018 Integrity Initiative memo, he is listed
as a current team member:
Funded
to the tune of $160 million this year to beat back Russian
disinformation with “counter-propaganda,” the State Department’s
Global Engagement Center has
refused to deny targeting
American citizens with information warfare of its own. “My old job
at the State Department was as chief propagandist,” confessed former
Global Engagement Center Director Richard Stengel. “I’m not
against propaganda. Every country does it and they have to do it to
their own population and I don’t necessarily think it’s that
awful.”
(het volgende Twitterbericht bevat een video die ik niet kan overnemen, hier de link naar het origineel)
At a Council on Foreign Relations forum about "fake news," former Editor at Time Magazine Richard Stengel directly states that he supports the use of propaganda on American citizens - then shuts the session down when challenged about how propaganda is used against the third world
Like so many of the media and political figures involved in the Integrity Initiative’s international network, the Global Engagement Center’s Leventhal has a penchant for deploying smear tactics against prominent voices that defy the foreign policy consensus. Leventhal appeared in an outtake of a recent NBC documentary on Russian disinformation smugly explaining how he would take down a 15-year-old book critical of American imperialism in the developing world. Rather than challenge the book’s substance and allegations, Leventhal boasted how he would marshall his resources to wage an ad hominem smear campaign to destroy the author’s reputation. His strategic vision was clear: when confronting a critic, ignore the message and destroy the messenger.
Integrity
Initiative documents reveal that Leventhal has been paid $76,608
dollars (60,000 British pounds) for a 50% contract.
While
those same documents claim he has retired from the State Department,
Leventhal’s own Linkedin
page lists
him as a current “Senior Disinformation Advisor” to the State
Department. If that were true, it would mean that the State
Department was employing a de facto foreign agent.
As
a cut-out of the British Foreign Office and Defense Ministry, the
Integrity Initiative’s work with current and former US officials
and members of the media raises certain legal questions. For one,
there is no indication that the group has registered under the
Justice Department’s Foreign Agent Registration Act, as most
foreign agents of influence are required to do.
Grants from the neocons’ favorite foundation
An
Integrity Initiative memo states that the right-wing Smith Richardson
Foundation (SRF) has also committed to ponying up funding for its US
network as soon as the group receives 501 c-3 non-profit status. The
foundation has already provided it with about $56,000 for covert
propaganda activities across Europe.
The
Smith Richardson Foundation has old ties to the US intelligence
community and controversial cold war influence operations. According
to reporter Russ
Bellant,
the foundation was secretly bankrolling radical right-wing
“indoctrination campaigns for the American public on cold war and
foreign policy issues”— programs that got the attention of
Senator William Fulbright, who warned then-President Kennedy of their
dangers. At one of these indoctrination seminars, a Smith Richardson
Foundation director “told attendees that ‘it is within the
capacity of the people in this room to literally turn the State of
Georgia into a civil war college,’ in order to overcome their
opponents.”
Smith
Richardson has funded a who’s who of the neoconservative movement,
from hyper-militaristic think tanks like the American Enterprise
Institute and the Institute for the Study of War. “To say the
[Smith Richardson] foundation was involved at every level in the
lobbying for and crafting of the so-called global war on terror after
9/11 would be an understatement,” wrote journalist
Kelley Vlahos.
Besides
Smith Richardson, the Integrity Initiative has stated its intention
to apply for grants from the State Department “to expand the
Integrity Initiative activities both within and outside of the USA.”
This is yet another indicator that the US government is paying for
propaganda targeting its own citizens.
“Main Event” in Seattle
An
Integrity Initiative internal document argues
that because “DC is well served by existing US institutions, such
as those with which the Institute [for Statecraft] already
collaborates,” the organization should “concentrate on extending
the work of the Integrity Initiative into major cities and key State
capitals [sic] across the USA.”
This
December 10, the Integrity Initiative organized what it called its
“main event” in the US. It was a conference on disinformation
held in Seattle, Washington under
the auspices of
a data firm called Adventium Labs. Together with the Technical
Leadership Institute at the University of Minnesota, the Integrity
Initiative listed Adventium Labs as one of its “first partners
outside DC.”
Adventium
is Minneapolis-based research and development firm that has reaped
contracts from the US military, including a recent
$5.4 million cyber-security grant from
the Pentagon’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA.
Inside
a modest-sized hotel conference room, the Adventium/Integrity
event began
with a speech by
the Integrity Initiative’s Simon Bracey-Lane. Two years prior,
Bracey-Lane appeared on the American political scene as a field
worker for Bernie Sanders’ 2016 presidential primary run, earning
media write-ups as the “Brit
for Bernie.” Now,
the young operator was back in the US as the advance man for a
military-intelligence cut-out that specialized in smearing left-wing
political figures like Jeremy Corbyn, the Labour leader widely
regarded as the British version of Sanders.
Bracey-Lane
opened his address by explaining that Integrity Initiative director
Chris Donnelly had been unable to appear at the event, possibly
because he was bogged down in the scandal back home.
He proceeded to read remarks prepared by Donnelly that offered a window into the frighteningly militaristic mindset the Integrity Initiative aims to impose on the public through their media and political allies.
According
to Donnelly’s comments, the West was no longer in a “peace time,
rules based environment.” From the halls of government to corporate
boardrooms to even the UK’s National Health System, “the
conclusion is that we have to look for people who suit a wartime
environment rather than peacetime.”
During
Q&A, Bracey-Lane remarked that “we have to change the
definition of war to encompass everything that war now encompasses,”
referring vaguely to various forms of “hybrid warfare.”
“There
is a great deal to be done in communicating that to young people,”
he continued. “When we mean being at war we don’t mean sending
our boys off to fight. It’s right here in our homes.”
The
emphasis on restructuring society along martial lines mirrored the
disturbing thinking also on display in notes
of a private meeting between
Donnelly and Gen. Richard Barrons in 2016. During that chat, the two
officers decided that the British military should be removed from
democratic supervision and be able to operate as “an independent
body outside politics.”
While
Bracey-Lane’s presentation perfectly captured the military mindset
of the Integrity Initiative, the speakers that followed him offered a
diverse array of perspectives on the concept of disinformation, some
more nuanced than others. But one talk stood out from the rest —
not because of its quality, but because of its complete lack thereof.
Reanimating the “red-brown” grifter
Alexander
Reid Ross (left) and Emmi Bevensee at the Integrity Initiative’s
“main event” in Seattle
The
presentation was delivered by Alexander Reid Ross, a half-baked
political researcher who peddles computer-generated spiderweb
relationship charts to prove the existence of a vast hidden network
of “red-brown” alliances and “syncretic media” conspiracies
controlled by puppeteers in Moscow.
Ross
is a lecturer on geography at Portland State University with no
scholarly or journalistic credentials on Russia. His students
have given
him dismal marks at
Rate My Professors, complaining about his “terrible monotone
lectures” and his penchant for “insert[ing] his own ideologies
into our class.” But with a book, “Against the Fascist Creep,”
distributed by the well-known anarchist publishing house, AK Press,
the middling academic has tried to make his name as a maverick
analyst.
Before
the Integrity Initiative was exposed as a military-intelligence front
operation, Ross was among a small coterie of pundits and self-styled
disinformation experts that followed the
group’s Twitter account. The Integrity Initiative even retweeted
his smear of War Nerd podcast co-host John Dolan.

These are effectively UK gov-sponsored attacks pic.twitter.com/KqABxFcqLF
In
a series of articles for the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) last year,
Ross attempted to bring his warmed-over Cold War theories to the
broader public. He wound up trashing everyone from the co-author of
this piece, Max Blumenthal, to Nation magazine publisher Katrina
Vanden Heuvel to Harvard University professor of international
relations Stephen Walt as hidden shadow-fascists secretly controlled
by the Kremlin.
The
articles ultimately generated
an embarrassing scandal and
a series of public retractions by
the editor-in-chief of the Southern Poverty Law Center, Richard
Cohen. And then, like some Dr. Frankenstein for discredited and
buried journalism careers, the British Ministry of Defense-backed
Integrity Initiative moved in to reanimate Ross as a sought-after
public intellectual.
Before
the Integrity Initiative-organized crowd, Ross offered a rambling
recitation of his theory of a syncretic fascist alliance puppeteered
by Russians: “The alt right takes from both this ‘red-brown,’
it’s called, or like left-right syncretic highly international
national of nationalisms, and from the United States’ own
paleoconservative movement, and it’s sort of percolated down
through college organizing, um, and anti-interventionism meets
anti-imperialism. Right?”
In
a strange twist, Ross appeared on stage at the Integrity Initiative’s
Seattle event alongside Emmi
Bevensee,
a contributor to the left-libertarian Center for a Stateless Society
(C4SS) think tank, whose tagline, “a left market anarchist
think-tank” expresses its core aim of uniting far-left anarchists
with free-market right-libertarians.
Bevensee,
a PhD candidate at the University of Arizona and self-described
“Borderlands anarcho into tech and crypto,” concluded her
presentation by asserting a linkage between the alternative news
site, Zero Hedge, and the “physical militarized presence in the
borderlands” of anti-immigrant vigilantes. Like Bevensee, Ross
has written
for C4SS
in the past.
The
irony of contributors to an anarchist group called the “Center for
a Stateless Society” auditioning before The State – the most
jackbooted element of it, in fact – for more opportunities to
attack anti-war politicians and journalists, can hardly be
overstated.
But
closer examination of the history of C4SS veers from irony into
something much darker and more unsettling.
Pedophile co-founder, white nationalist associates
C4SS
was co-founded in 2006 by a confessed child
rapist and
libertarian activist, Brad Spangler, who set the group up to promote
“Market anarchism” to “replace
Marxism on the left.”
When
Spangler’s child rape confessions emerged in 2015, the Center for
Stateless Society founder was finally
drummed out by
his colleagues.
There’s
more: Spangler’s understudy and deputy in
the C4SS, Kevin Carson — currently listed as the group’s “Karl
Hess Chair in Social Theory” —
turned out to be a longtime friend and defender of
white nationalist Keith Preston. Preston’s name is prominently
plastered on the back of Kevin Carson’s book, hailing the C4SS man
as “the
Proudhon of our time” —
a loaded compliment, given Proudhon’s unhinged anti-Semitism.
Carson only disownedPreston
in 2009, shortly before Preston helped white nationalist leader
Richard Spencer launch his alt-right webzine, Alternative Right.
The
C4SS group currently participates in
the annual Koch-backed International Students For Liberty conference
in Washington DC, LibertyCon, a
who’s who of libertarian think-tank hacks and Republican Party
semi-celebrities like Steve Forbes, FCC chairman Ajit Pai, and Alan
Dershowitz.
In
2013, C4SS’s Kevin Carson tweeted out his dream fantasy that four
Jewish leftists — Mark Ames, Yasha Levine, Corey Robin, and Mark
Potok — would die in a plane crash while struggling over a single
parachute. Potok was an executive editor at the Southern Poverty Law
Center, which last year retracted every one of the crank articles
that Alexander Reid Ross published with them and formally
apologized for
having run them.
For
some reason, the super-sleuth Ross conveniently failed to investigate
the libertarian group, C4SS, that he has chosen to partner with and
publish in. That ability to shamelessly smear and denounce leftists
over the most crudely manufactured links to the far-right — while
cozying up to groups as sleazy as C4SS and authoritarian as the
Integrity Initiative — is the sort of adaptive trait that MI6 spies
and the Rendon Group would find useful in a covert domestic influence
operation.
Ross
did not respond to our request for comment on his involvement with
the Integrity Initiative and C4SS.
Disinformation for democracy
As
it spans out across the US, the Integrity Initiative has stated
its desire to
“build a younger generation of Russia watchers.” Toward this
goal, it is supplementing its coterie of elite journalists, think
tank hacks, spooks and State Department info-warriors with
certifiable cranks like Ross.
Less
than 24 hours after Ross’s appearance at the Integrity Initiative
event in Seattle, he sent
a menacing email to
the co-author of this article, Ames, announcing his intention to
recycle an old and discredited smear against him and publish it in
the Daily Beast — a publication that appears to enjoy a special
relationship
with Integrity Initiative personnel.
Despite
the threat of investigation in the UK, the Integrity Initiative’s
“network of networks” appears to be escalating its covert,
government-funded influence operation, trashing the political left
and assailing anyone that gets in its way — all in the name
of fighting foreign disinformation.
“We
have to win this one,” Integrity Initiative founder Col. Chris
Donnelly said,
“because if we don’t, democracy will be undermined.”
